The Queen's coffin has landed at RAF Northolt ahead of her funeral in London next week. Her coffin was flown from Edinburgh to the RAF base before being driven to Buckingham Palace.
It will be taken to lie in state at Westminster Hall for "four clear days" ahead of her state funeral on September 19.
Her Majesty's coffin spent 24 hours lying in state at St Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh before making the 400 miles flight from Edinburgh Airport to RAF Northolt in West London, accompanied by her daughter Princess Anne.
From there her coffin made the 14 mile trip across London to Buckingham Palace to be met by The Prince and Princess of Wales.
Thousands of people lined the procession route through London to see her coffin before she was taken to rest in the Bow Room of the Palace so that staff can pay their respects.
Tomorrow (September 14) at 2.22pm her coffin will be taken on a gun carriage of The King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery to the Palace of Westminster where she will lie in state for "four clear days".
The Queen will lie in state until 6.30am on the day of her state funeral on September 19. During the monarch's four days in state at Westminster Hall, it is expected that more than a million people will file pass her coffin.
